About Lyssa
Lyssa Solomon Simpson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 10 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, LGBT-related concerns, anger, self-esteem, and depression. She also supports people with young adult issues like leaving home, identity, and early-career strains.
Lyssa frames sessions around the person's own story and strengths. She treats clients as the expert on their lives and focuses on practical steps they can take. Conversations aim to clarify what matters most and identify small, manageable changes.
Her approach mixes client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies. That means sessions often include time to listen without judgment, try different perspectives on thoughts and behaviors, and set short-term goals that fit daily life. Motivational interviewing is used to help people find reasons to act on those goals.
She has a decade of hands-on experience in community and clinical settings. That time includes helping people cope with mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, self-harm concerns, and phobias as well as communication and family-related problems. She also has experience with adoption and foster care issues and abandonment themes.
Lyssa offers care in English from Georgia and accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and any logistical details. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's matching steps and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Lyssa uses client-centered therapy to focus on the person's own experience and priorities. This approach means sessions begin by listening and reflecting so clients can shape their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to practice different ways of responding. That can help with anxiety, mood issues, and social fears. Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck or unsure about change by clarifying personal reasons for taking action and building small steps forward.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. She will talk with clients about what feels most useful and adapt methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. The emphasis is on trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
The therapist's profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people connect from different locations, which is useful for those managing study, shift work, or relocations. Licensed professionals typically coordinate timing and practical details when you schedule the first appointment.
